Ayurveda

Ayurveda is the ancient Indian system
of natural and holistic medicine. When translated from Sanskrit,
Ayurveda means “the science of life” (the Sanskrit root ayur means
“longevity” or “life” and veda means “science”).

While
allopathic medicine tends to focus on the management of disease,
Ayurveda provides us with the knowledge of how to prevent
disease and how to eliminate its root cause if it does
occur.

The
knowledge of Ayurveda was passed on orally
through a lineage of sages in India until it was collated into text
more than five thousand years ago. The oldest known texts on
Ayurveda are the Charaka Samhita, Sushruta Samhita, and the
Ashtanga Hrudaya. These texts detail the affect that the five
elements found in the cosmic system - earth, water, air, fire,
space – have on our individual system, and expound on the
importance of keeping these elements balanced for a healthy and
happy life.

Prakriti
Parikshan

According to Ayurveda,
each person will be influenced by certain elements more than
others. This is because of their prakriti, or natural constitution.
Ayurveda categorizes the different constitutions into three
different doshas:

Vata dosha, in which
the air and space elements dominate

Pitta dosha, in which
the fire element dominates

Kapha dosha, in which
the earth and water elements dominate

The
dosha affects not just the shape of one’s body but also bodily
tendencies (like food preferences and digestion), and the
temperament of one’s mind and emotions.
